. >> let's bring in kelly o'donnell who is standing by for us in columbus, ohio this morning. kelly, ohio was the state everybody was looking at, the one everybody said all eyes there and we'll know who will be the next president. how did it play out last night? >> reporter: well, it certainly got tense at some times, willie. certainly voters throughout the day when we were at polling places, you could really tell that they had a sense they had a big role to play and as evening went there was almost a bit of surprise at how early it was called because the officials here at the statehouse had been telling us be prepared for a late night. it could even go into the late counting of provisional ballots that would happen late they are month, but that was not to be. the models that everyone was using to forecast to put ohio in the president's column and then there was a wait a minute moment where the romney campaign was not satisfied that enough votes had been counted yet. they felt that there was potential to close the gap and overtake the president in some precincts and districts
